Chapter 130: Mother and Son Chat
Wang Xiulan followed her husband and children to live in her mother-in-law's house for two days in the past few days, and also went to the back mountain with everyone to see the camellia trees planted by her second brother Li Shuangyan. Although the planting time is still short, it can be seen from the green leaves of Camellia oleifera that this small piece of Camellia oleifera has a great chance of survival.
In the two days of the New Year's celebration at his mother-in-law's house, the second brother Li Shuangyuan borrowed another 2,000 yuan from his two sons to buy new seedlings after the beginning of spring.
It's just that she and her husband are both textile workers, and they are not good at business, so they have to rely on their sons for this. So Wang Xiulan called out her son Li Liang after lunch, and the two talked while walking along the embankment of the drainage canal in the village.
Li Liang listened to his mother's words, and there was no good way for a while, so he said: "Mom, I still have to think about this matter, I have discussed with my uncle about planting kiwifruit in the past two days, but I don't know how the market is outside, my uncle promised me to help me inquire when he returns to school, and if this business can be done, we will bring my uncles to do it together." ”
According to Li Liang's vague memories of his previous life, the New Zealanders introduced kiwifruit from China at the beginning of this century and named it "Ki-wifruit". Commercial kiwifruit cultivation began in the 40s, and kiwifruit began to be supplied in large quantities to the New Zealand domestic market. In the 50s, the kiwifruit export trade began, and after the 70s, the export trade ushered in a period of rapid growth.
Kiwifruit market if the development and cultivation in the country like the previous life, will be a huge market, in Li Liang's own impression, the earliest kiwifruit planting, consumption market is in New Zealand kiwifruit into the country after the development and growth of the slowly grown.
And once this market is opened, it is not a household or two farmers planting to meet the demand, even if the entire Hek County mountain farmers are invested in this planting market, can not meet the growing demand at home and abroad, which can be seen from the later generations of so many counties and cities will kiwifruit industry as the main brand of economic agriculture.
After listening to her son Li Liang's words, Wang Xiulan also knew that this matter was not in a hurry, she said: "Okay, then this matter will be handed over to you, it is not easy for your eldest uncle and second uncle to be in the village, you took your uncle to make a fortune, although they don't say it in their mouths, but they will have some ideas in their hearts, you can help if you can pay attention to it!"
"Mom, don't worry, I know it in my heart!" Li Liang said.
"Well, but mom has one more request!"
"What requirements?"
"Don't delay your own learning!"
"Good!"
No matter how important it is to help her mother's brother and brother, it is not as important as her son's study, which Wang Xiulan knows very well. If it weren't for his son Li Liang's good performance in his studies in the past six months or so last year, he not only ranked first in his grade in academic performance, but also compiled a learning method that was promoted throughout the school. Otherwise, Wang Xiulan would not agree with her son Li Liang to think about business matters.
Sometimes in bed, Wang Xiulan is still discussing with her husband Li Shuangzhu, and she is very worried about Li Liang and Wang Fagen's Spring Festival couplets and Wangkelai restaurant business.
The years of unrest have just passed, and although the top leaders of the newspapers are already promoting reform and opening up, special economic zones have been set up, unemployed young people in the cities have been allowed to engage in some individual businesses, and the registration of individual businesses has been relaxed.
But the common speculation (harmony) now is that these people always have a 'sword of Damocles' hanging over their heads, and although Wang Xiulan, who is a Chinese person, does not understand this term, it does not prevent her from understanding it in this way.
In this era, if a person makes a big business or offends people, there will always be people who use various methods to rectify you. Li and Zhang's luck is very good, Li Liang happened to save Long Shaoyun, the daughter of Long Yemin, a high-ranking county official in Hek County, and more importantly, Long Yemin's political thinking is more open-minded and consistent with the thoughts of the upper echelons. Regarding Li Zhang's two operating restaurants and developing rental shops, he instructed the relevant administrative departments to apply for business licenses as soon as possible. It is precisely with Long Yemin's endorsement that the individual business of the Li and Zhang families is flourishing, and no one interferes.
Of course, Li Liang is not very clear about these things that Wang Xiulan is worried about, although he knows that the policy in the 80s was one step and three turns.
After a brief discussion of this matter, the mother and son walked along the embankment of the drainage canal, bathed in the scorching sun of the early spring afternoon, and their bodies were warm.
"Mom, are these fields planted with rape?" Li Liang asked.
On both sides of the embankment of the small river are large fields, which have just been divided into households for a few months, and the farmers are very industrious, unlike the winter fields that are full of harvested rice stumps. Although it is the first month of the year, the fields are still green, and large fields are planted with green rapeseed. At this time, it is not yet the season of rape flowering, and when the weather is warm in the next month, it is the season of rape flowering, and the fields will become golden at that time.
"Yes, when my mother was not in school, she often went to the field at home during the winter vacation, and at that time, your grandmother's family would plant some rape in her own field every winter to squeeze oil and eat it by herself!"
At that time, there was no separation into households, the fields were all collectively owned by the brigade, and except for a part of the rapeseed planted, which had to be handed over, there was only a little bit of rapeseed oil distributed to each household, which was not enough to eat. Industrious people have no choice but to use their own land to grow some supplementary crops. Only the agricultural and sideline products produced in these self-reserved fields can really be regarded as their own.
Because of the relationship between his parents, Li Liang has never farmed since he was a child. During the winter and summer vacations, I came to my grandparents' house and my grandmother's house to play, and I just followed the adults, fishing for frogs, fishing, and catching grasshoppers in the fields.
After going around in the field with my mother, my father Li Shuangzhu and his three uncles were playing cards in the open space in front of the house. They moved the lunch table out of their grandmother's room and played cards in the sun.
My grandmother took her two aunts and aunts to prepare for dinner in the kitchen, and my two cousins watched TV in my uncle's room.
Since my aunt moved this color TV back to the village when she came back a few years ago, her house has become the most lively place in the village, and people often come to take a look when they are fine, to see if the Wang family has turned on the TV. If the Wang family was watching TV, they would come in and watch it together with a thick face.
The two cousins are even more so, after eating every day, as long as they have time, they will run to grandma and uncle, this is only 14 inches in Li Liang's opinion, stupid and clumsy color TV, in the eyes of people in this era, it is undoubtedly the best thing.
